Songkran Festival in Genting

Fresh fragrant and flamboyant, Thai food has always been a top favourite world cuisine. Those who love all things spicy would enjoy Thai food but some of the staples of Thai cuisine like Pad Thai (rice noodles cooked with a tamarind and fish sauce) and Tod Mun (fish cakes) would easily satisfy every appetite.

In April, Resorts World Genting will be featuring a wide range of Thai dishes. A Thai-themed buffet will be held in Coffee Terrace at Genting Grand to celebrate the Songkran Festival from 7 to 16 April. Marking the traditional Thai New Year, the Songkran Festival is a time where people have fun and engage in friendly water fights and street parties all week long. Water is an important element during the celebration due to its important role in the agricultural culture of the country.

Rest assured, no water fights will take place at Coffee Terrace, only an abundance of delicious Thai food. There’s something for everyone at the Songkran buffet spread, with two menus featured on a rotation basis.

Cool and sweet dishes are also offered to wash down all that spiciness. Diners can choose from Mango & Sticky Rice, Water Chestnuts in Coconut Milk, Thai Tapioca Pudding, Thai Style Cendol, and fruits, among others. For drinks, diners can enjoy the refreshing Lemongrass Tea and Coconut Juice.

The Songkran Festival Buffet will be available for lunch on weekdays (Mon – Fri, from 12pm – 2.30pm) at the price of RM44 for adults and RM22 for children while on weekends (Saturday, Sunday and public holiday eve), it is priced at RM50 for adults and RM20 for children.

Buffet dinner (5pm – 9pm) on weekdays is priced at RM84 for adults and RM42 for children while on weekends, it is priced at RM88 for adults and RM42 for children.
